  Hi dabrown52,

  You can check out the following link and try the suggestions posted by Linney MVP on Friday, January 29, 2010 19:03 and check if it helps.

  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistaprograms/thread/d18cbb53-6c2e-437D-ae98-ebba1d80f582

  If the problem persists, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling adobe.

  You can try to uninstall all older versions, Adobe Acrobat , and see if the problem is resolved. Uninstall earlier versions of the application and then install the version you want. If multiple versions of Adobe Reader are installed on the system, remove all versions and install only one version.
  To do this, follow these steps:
  1. click on Start, type Appwiz.cpl in the Start Search box, and then click Appwiz.cpl in the list of found files.
  2. double-click on the version of Acrobat or reader you want to uninstall.
  3. click on Yes if you are prompted to confirm that you want to uninstall the program.
  Note If you are prompted to confirm that you want to run the program, click on allow.
  4. click Yes to restart the computer.

He's left no aside, the way it has been triggered open with the icon; how he was placed to bump at the gap when selected via the icon; how it was considered first of all just a big green square; How the link boxes were made to be spaced as if they were... Can you direct me how to create it?

  2. also in trouble with the specification of fonts. There are times that I can choose a font from the list, I chose the additional fonts available and sometimes, when it just won't let me choose one, even if it is already used on the site or page.

  On a steep curve here, but any new information provide from my recent contact with Adobe has been extremely useful. My site is www.curricula101.com. It is much better than what it was when I called first a few days ago. Sales pages work fine now, thanks to your contribution.

  3. on the navigation path revised: a current question is menus horizontal separated for the GMAT and GRE goes everywhere at the top and bottom of the pages. I've specified particular States for text via the Site Properties > content > hyperlink styes on the default style. A bright color is chosen for the active state, but he does not like such (not at all). The other menu (home, Contact, schools etc.) made by the widget Menu runs perfectly until white color shows in the current page instance.
  

  There are a lot more refinement and content development to do for sales purposes.

  Thank you for your help.

  Best wishes to all at Adobe,

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Review the information from the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?l=en-us&type=software&s=Grand%20theft%20auto

  He says that version 2 is not compatible.

  If Aero is the problem, disable it before installing the game and then turn back on.
  I would say as you right-click on Setup and select "Run as Administrator".

  I hope this helps.

• XP opens with symbols instead of letters, making it unreadable files and icons in the task bar and office

  HI AskDrL (and this also applies to the DrLHP - but you should follow the advice of the PA bear and not post back here if it does not help you - unless I suspect you two are really the same person with two usernames).

  Try a clean boot (Vista and W7) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135. If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem. Follow the procedures described in the article. Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall. Once don't forget to reset your system back to the normal state, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work. If you are using XP, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434.

  Try starting mode safe mode with networking to see if the problem is here.  If this isn't the case, we have little room to work.

  Check the display properties to make sure that fonts and styles are correct:

  In XP, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/140752/en-us.

  In Vista, see http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/78281-advanced-appearance.html

  In Windows 7, see [2] http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/282-window-color-appearance-change.html?filter = appearance

  Check the locale and language to ensure that they do not appear in something weird and are set to standard English with normal fonts.

  Check Device Manager to see if there are problems with the video or monitor.  Whether (or not), go to the manufacturer of the computer or a web page of the manufacturer of the device and get the latest driver, firmware or software for the video card and monitor that are appropriate for your devices and your operating system.  To update all that is available and there is place and then reboot and see if that helps.

  If this does not work, I recommend repost you in the Windows Forum where experts in this will be more than happy to help you: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/desktop?page=1&tab=all&tm=1300700638376 but first, to the top, where it says Windows Version, use the dropmenu to select your, then you will find yourself in the appropriate forum for your system.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  P.S. If you are the same person, then you should uninstall it and use on McAfee removal tool as having AVG installed at the same time and it can cause disorders and problems - I doubt that what we see here, but it still needs to be done.  After normal uninstallation of McAfee, use the removal tool to get rid of leftovers: http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507.  I don't know if this will solve the problem, but this should be done in any case that is likely to cause other problems on the road later.
